D.V., a 32-year-old man, is being admitted to the medical floor from the neurology clinic for evaluation of his symptoms. D.V. has experienced increasing urinary frequency and urgency over the past 2 months. Because his female partner was treated for a sexually transmitted infection, D.V. underwent treatment, but the symptoms did not resolve. D.V. has also recently had two brief episodes of eye “fuzziness” associated with diplopia and flashes of brightness. He has noticed ascending numbness and weakness of the right arm with the inability to hold objects over the past few days. Now he reports rapidly progressing weakness in his legs along with blurred, patchy vision. D.V denies any allergies to medications, as well as any significant past medical history. However, he does report the occasional cold during the winter months.
Determine what possible diagnosis D.V.will have from the evaluation of his symptoms and what do each of the symptoms mean and how do they relate to his diagnosis?
